sarà rottaggio imprevisto, quando continuo e inspiegabile

In questi giorni, il rotting sta lievemente imperversando. Ahimè!!! A questo punto della mattina sono già le 12 passate, e io non ho ancora fatto nulla di rilevante, il che è greve e preoccupante, visto il contesto ultimo presente. Un sintomo evidente della cosa è che qui i post stanno uscendo a fatica, in questi ultimi giorni, ma appunto non perché io stia facendo molto altro di intrigante; i minuti giusto scorrono così, senza che sia possibile capire precisamente il perché. 💀

Ieri mattina addirittura mi sono in qualche modo svegliata quasi alle 13, al punto che ho dovuto zompare colazione e ho direttamente pranzato, perché ops. Questo è accaduto perché, durante la notte (o meglio, la mattina, visto che sarà successo al massimo qualche quarto d’ora prima del mio vero risveglio), ho sognato di svegliarmi ed alzarmi mentre che fossero le 11 e qualcosa, come altre mattine… di conseguenza, evidentemente il mio cervello credeva che io fossi già perfettamente resuscitata e, allora mi ha fatta rimanere fisicamente e mentalmente lì nel letto, finché non è arrivato mio padre probabilmente preoccupandosi sotto sotto di se fossi morta. 🦗

Sempre meglio di ieri sera o stamattina, però, visto che rispettivamente nel primo caso mi era venuto mal di testa senza fare niente (ma almeno sono andata a dormire un po’ prima), e nel secondo mi è salita l’allergia forte con il muco potente e persino la sciorda pesante. E, appunto, è un pochino imbarazzante che, nonostante io mi sia svegliata alle 10 stamattina, non ho ancora fatto praticamente nulla per cui valga la pena che questa giornata consumi le mie energie vitali (cioè, per cui valga la pena non essere rimasta nel letto fino ad ora di pranzo anche stavolta, ma in questo caso volontariamente). 🥱
Vabbè, in sintesi ho il presentimento che in parte questa possa essere l’estate. Non che io l’abbia mai desiderata in effetti, a differenza di altre persone che prima la vogliono ma poi quando arriva si lamentano, quindi tipo non è colpa mia se mi fa un pochino questo effetto qui, però è comunque seccante e per certi aspetti problematico. Se avete idee per ridurre la marciscenza però, compatibilmente a quello che posso fare e che mi piace o potrebbe piacermi, accetto ovviamente suggerimenti… 🙏

I've felt compelled to post; it just works!

I've got a pc which is over a decade old; I've only ever used Microsoft with my main OS on that machine being windows 7 and then windows 10.
With the new requirements for windows 11 being what they were I was considering installing it anyway with some workarounds.
My computer appeared to be getting slower, I was annoyed with all of the bloat which goes along with the Microsoft OS, the constant reminders to "finish setting up my device" and use one drive. All of this was a bit too much for me.

I figured I'd have a go at installing a Linux OS. I'd ran Ubuntu years and years ago as an experiment on an evening older pc and it was very much sub par, it looked nice, it was a pain to do anything and didn't play any of the games I wanted at the time.

A little bit of research told me that Linux mint may be a good option. I also read that dual booting can be difficult. So I just backed up my data, and installed it on the hard disk.

It was mostly seamless, I had issues with my graphics driver, which meant I couldn't click the buttons to install mint & crashes, when running off the live disk to see what the os was like. This was part of the reason I just installed it on the hard drive and didn't go through with a 'testing' phase.

Once that was resolved by installing the Nvidia driver I could use mint. This was made quite easy as it was just a few clicks in the gui and made really obvious to see. And the Mint does everything I need it to!

Gaming appears to have come a long, long way, I ran Civ V to test and it worked.

My Bluetooth mouse and keyboard connected without issue.

The libre office suite is great to use and I've found it similar to the Microsoft equivalents.

My computer appears to be faster. I now realise that it was actually just the additional demands of the Microsoft OS on my machine which slowed it.

I have a multi screen set up, this simply just worked, the only tweek I made was selecting my main monitor.

To top it all, and perhaps the most surprising thing for me (and the reason for the post) is the printer just worked. Like, printers never just work. It's just plugged in, recognised and I could print. No additional set up needed.

I'm short, Linux has progressed so much over the years. I thank all those who have worked on it to make it such a great option. It will be my main OS going forward and I'll advocate for it. I'll also ensure that my kids are running a Linux OS when they have computers of their own.

So, if you're reading this and unsure about Linux, don't be. It's great and easy to set up, works flawlessly.

The International Atomic Energy Agency's (IAEA) Board of Governors has passed a resolution formally declaring Iran noncompliant with its nonproliferation obligations for the first time since 2005, a move Tehran immediately condemned.

The resolution, which was adopted on June 12 during a quarterly meeting of the IAEA board, can facilitate the return of UN sanctions against Iran later this year.

In response, Iran's Foreign Ministry announced that a new enrichment site would be established in a safe zone and first-generation centrifuges in the Fordo site will be replaced with advanced sixth-generation machines.

"As we have previously stated, the Islamic Republic of Iran has no choice but to respond to this political resolution," the ministry said in a statement.

Mutual obligation is one of the last great shibboleths of Australian politics. Now the entire system is under scrutiny with potentially big implications for our welfare system.

Could this be the death of Australia’s nightmarish welfare system?
